Abstract
Abstract A terminating sequent calculus for intuitionistic propositional logic is obtained by modifying the R $\supset $ rule of the labelled sequent calculus $\mathbf {G3I}$ . This is done by adding a variant of the principle of a fortiori in the left-hand side of the premiss of the rule. In the resulting calculus, called ${\mathbf {G3I}}_{\mathbf {t}}$ , derivability of any given sequent is directly decidable by root-first proof search, without any extra device such as loop-checking. In the negative case, the failed proof search gives a finite countermodel to the sequent on a reflexive, transitive, and Noetherian Kripke frame. As a byproduct, a direct proof of faithfulness of the embedding of intuitionistic logic into Grzegorcyk logic is obtained.
